In integrable one-dimensional quantum systems an infinite set of local conserved quantities exists which can prevent a current from decaying completely. For cases like the spin current in the XXZ model at zero magnetic field or the charge…
We investigate heat transport in various quantum spin chains, using the projector operator technique. We find that anomalous heat transport is linked not to the integrability of the Hamiltonian, but to whether it can be mapped to a model of…
